[edit] License tagging for Image:NCPDpatch.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NCPDpatch.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:07, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:IrishGuardsPipeMajor.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:IrishGuardsPipeMajor.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

[edit] Recent edits to MiG Alley

I've been watching your edits to the article, and like what I see. Keep up the good work. I've also noticed that you cite specific figures in several places - are you using a specific source (or sources) for these things? If so, could you cite them in the bibliography? It'd help the article out a lot, methinks. Fedallah 22:52, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. The numbers I drew from several sources. Theyare buried in the one from Air Force magazine on the Russians in MiG Alley and I also heard them on the Hisotry Channel on Friday night, when they featured MiG Alley. I will insert the footnotes when I get a chance. Barnej

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

I converted the block to "anon-only," so you should be able to edit while logged in. Let us know if you have any more problems in this regard. Sorry for the trouble!

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:SuffolkPoliceNYPD.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:SuffolkPoliceNYPD.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | unblock | contribs) asked to be unblocked, but one or more administrators has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators can also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). This unblock request continues to be visible. Do not replace this message with another unblock request.

Request reason: "I don't know who this individual Mackensen is, but he won't respond to me and I don't know what the heck he means by "continued vandalism." I have never vadalized an entry EVER."

Decline reason: "Not blocked. See below. Daniel.Bryant ^{[ T · C ]} 23:54, 17 November 2006 (UTC)"

Administrators: This template should be removed when the block has expired, or after 2 days in the case of blocks of 1 week or longer.

We can't unblock you at this time, because you haven't given us the information we need to even look into your block. You yourself were not blocked; if you were prevented from editing, you must have been autoblocked or blocked because of your IP address. I'm removing your unblock request because there's nothing we can do without this information. If you are still autoblocked by the time you read this message:

Try and edit the Wikipedia:Sandbox by clicking here.
Copy the {{unblock-auto|...}} code generated for you under the "Autoblocked?" section.
Paste the code at the bottom of your user talk page and click save.

If you are not blocked from editing the sandbox then the autoblock on your IP address has already expired and you do not need to do anything more. Daniel.Bryant ^{[ T · C ]} 23:54, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

unblock-auto|1=192.77.198.11|2=continued vandalism|3=Mackensen

I've changed the block to Anon only. As for Mackensen not responding, sorry patience is required as everyone else Mackensen is a volunteer so is unlikely to be available constantly to deal with such situations. --pgk 00:04, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:SuffolkCountyNYPD.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:SuffolkCountyNYPD.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fritz Saalfeld (Talk) 16:03, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
